    Di2 derailleur

    Biggest advantage is not having to deal with cable stretch on the cable driven. With todays indexed shifters (not the old friction shifters), once setup - either works great. However over time, esp. with a new cable, there will be some break-in adjustments required on cable shifters. Biggest...

    And the problems continue with my ST2 :(

    had to flip mine over for a bit of maintenance - stand has one hex key bolt holding it. Interesting is a pair of ridges keeping the base of the stand from getting out of alignment. If the ST2 is similar, then the stand is likely bent or faulty. Yeah Smitty - looks like its up to the dealer to...

    And the problems continue with my ST2 :(

    Remember riding my g/f's high end campy equipped road bike (she never rode it) 23km to work each way one summer. Everything fell off or got loose in the first couple weeks. Wheels had to be trued a couple times a week. Considering its pedigree, I thought that was terrible. Once I tuned and...

    And the problems continue with my ST2 :(

    speaking generally without going outside to look - every other one I had the bolt clamping it to the bike was directly under facing up. Loosen, align, tighten. Should be obvious. Might be easier to flip bike upside down to work on that. I try to do all my own maintenance. Learned through...

    ST1 mods

    I dont even know the brand, I know .... just whatever the dealer had on hand. Has a logo but not one I recognize. It was inexpensive. (edit .... it's a Kona. Found it listed on the receipt. Heard of them obviously, but the bar graphics weren't obvious) The specs though are valid. I was...

    Does anyone know what size seatpost collar the Stromer requires?

    Disk brake clearing racks aren't needed as the brake caliper is mounted between the chain and seat stays. Many other brands have them above the dropouts behind the seat stays, and are right in the way of rack supports.

    ST1 console battery & defective symptoms

    Curious if ST1 owners get their console to power up while disconnected from main battery. Tried 2 consoles, and no go. Looks like the onboard battery is for memory only. Symptoms: New bike console had no speed/odo indication - all 0 All other functions were fine. Had about 4 rides - all works...

    ST1 mods

    ST1 Elite grips were terrible - changed up to Ergon GP1 large. Huge difference. Hands don't get numb right away. Still need to move my position around a bit while riding, but they aren't near as bad. stock handlebar was 685mm and the steering felt twitchy. - changed up to a 760mm wide, 9 deg...

    Battery indication when charged

    ST1 First time charged up, charger shut off, then back on in a few sec for about 5 sec, then off, on etc a few times then stopped. 2 nights ago charged overnight. Figured maybe the cells would settle down and take a bit more. next day 100%. Took battery out overnight and put it back today-...

    Battery indication when charged

    Wondering what folks experience is with the battery charge values after being charged. After charging in evening - 100% Next day at noon - 93% Quick run around the block - 90% then after sitting about 20 min - comes back up about 2% This sound normal? Mainly the overnight drop of 7% The...

    Stromer ST1 codes

    Going by the codes at the start of this thread. Boost mode is code 1005 but.... 0 is off, and 1 is enable ... not 2 is off Then you have to hold the right display button for a few sec to kick in. The manual says you also have to be going 1.8 MPH before it kicks in.

    Newbie introduction and some general questions...

    Charging either way is equivalent. The adapter has no electronics, its just adapting one connector to the other. Personally I'd rather have less wear and tear on the receiver socket for the battery by removing it constantly. It looks to be difficult to replace - and expensive, as opposed to an...

    If you looked at the ST1 and the ST2, how did you decide?

    Came down to 1)$ 2) either will get you there in the same amount of time give or take. 3) if it were my main transportation mode, I could justify (maybe) the extra value in the feature set. Since its more for errands and recreation - the ST1 was it. 4) after trying 6 different other...
